Eric Zabel addresses descending in Hell on Wheels by saying something
to the effect that as you get older you get softer and realize
descending fast is maybe not so smart.

Riding a bike is not the only subject that will make you feel this
way... I agree with the prior post about concentrating on the most
important lessons to try to keep him safe. The rest is his to learn
and yours to worry about. Fourteen - the fun is just beginning!
